Hola, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. Living in the Marina Alta, I know that finding the right awning in Murla is about more than just shade; it is about reclaiming your terrace from the intense inland heat that defines our comarca. With a population of around 574 residents, Murla offers a peaceful Mediterranean lifestyle, but the sun can be relentless in areas like Puerta del Valle or the elevated villas of Colina Oeste. Whether you are overlooking the vineyards in Partida Garroferal or settling into a townhouse in the Comeig area, your outdoor space needs protection that respects the traditional aesthetic of the Pop Valley. In Murla a awning typically runs 120-450 €/m² including local labour, depending on the technical complexity and fabric choice. My role is to ensure that your installation withstands the thermal shifts of our valley climate while enhancing the architectural charm of your home. We pride ourselves on providing honest, durable solar protection solutions for our international neighbours who have chosen this beautiful corner of Alicante as their home.

Regulations and Permits for Awnings in Murla

Navigating the local bureaucracy in a small village requires local knowledge. All our installations strictly adhere to the European safety standard UNE-EN 13561, which dictates the wind resistance and performance requirements for external blinds and awnings. This ensures that your investment is safe during the occasional "Gota Fría" or strong gusts common in the Marina Alta.

Regarding local administrative requirements, the Murla Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) regulates external modifications through its PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana). For most residential awnings that do not involve structural changes or permanent enclosures, the process is classified as an 'Obra Menor' (Minor Work). In many cases, a simple 'Comunicación Previa' is sufficient, especially if the awning matches the established aesthetic of the urbanisation. However, if your property is located within the historic town centre or near protected heritage sites, specific colour palettes and styles may be mandated to preserve the village's visual harmony. We assist our clients in identifying which permit is necessary to ensure your installation is fully compliant with municipal bylaws.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does awning cost in Murla?
The price generally ranges between 120 € and 450 € per square metre. This variation accounts for the type of mechanism—such as a simple monobloc vs. a full-cassette system that protects the fabric—and whether you opt for manual operation or a motorised Somfy system. Labour is included in our quotes, reflecting the specific logistical needs of the Murla area.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, technically most exterior modifications require a minor works permit (Obra Menor) from the Murla Ayuntamiento. While some small installations are handled via a prior communication, it is always best to notify the town hall to avoid potential fines. If you live in a community like Puerta del Valle, you should also check your internal community rules regarding fabric colours.
How long does it take?
From the moment we finalise the measurements and you approve the quote, the manufacturing process usually takes between 2 to 3 weeks. The actual installation on your property in Murla is typically completed within a single morning or afternoon, depending on the number of units and the height of the installation.
Do you cover Murla?
Absolutely. We are based in the region and frequently work in Murla and the surrounding Jalón Valley. We cover the entire municipality, including the town centre and all outlying urbanisations like Colina Oeste and Partida Garroferal, ensuring a local service with no hidden travel surcharges.
What warranty do you provide?
We offer a comprehensive 2-year warranty on the installation and mechanical components. Additionally, the high-quality technical fabrics we use, such as Sauleda or Dickson, often come with a manufacturer's warranty of up to 5 or 10 years against fading and rot, giving you long-term peace of mind in the Spanish sun.
Can you install sensors for the wind?
Yes, we highly recommend wind sensors for awnings in the Marina Alta. Because Murla is inland and can experience sudden gusts through the valley, an automated sensor will retract your awning automatically if the wind exceeds a safe threshold, preventing damage to the arms and the facade of your home.
Which fabric is best for the Murla climate?
For the inland heat of Murla, we recommend solution-dyed acrylic fabrics. These provide excellent UV protection and thermal comfort. If your terrace faces the afternoon sun, a micro-perforated fabric might be even better as it allows hot air to escape upwards through the material, significantly lowering the temperature underneath the awning.
